  • Elbow Arthritis

    Elbow Arthritis

    Elbow arthritis can cause persistent pain, stiffness, swelling, and loss of motion that affects everyday activities such as lifting, carrying, reaching, exercising, and work tasks. As cartilage within the elbow joint gradually wears away, movement may become increasingly painful and restricted.

  • Cubital Tunnel Syndrome

    Cubital Tunnel Syndrome

    Cubital tunnel syndrome is a common nerve condition that occurs when the ulnar nerve becomes compressed or irritated at the elbow. This compression may cause numbness, tingling, weakness, and pain that extends into the forearm, hand, and fingers.

  • Tennis Elbow

    Tennis Elbow

    Tennis elbow is a common overuse condition that causes pain on the outside of the elbow and may affect gripping, lifting, sports participation, and everyday activities. Despite its name, tennis elbow does not only affect athletes. Many patients develop symptoms from repetitive work activities, manual labor, computer use, or household tasks.

  • Ligament Injuries

    Ligament Injuries

    Elbow ligament injuries are injuries to the tough elastic tissues that connect the bones of the elbow joint to each other. These ligaments stabilize the elbow while allowing an appropriate joint range of motion to occur.
